MCM Ohana (6/6)

  1. Nice work so far Jim.👍 Those door handles and window cranks are pretty decent looking as is. I would just paint them with Molotow after doing the door cards.
  2. Getting back to the question of the Ferrari heads…I think a little experimentation with paint consistency, air pressure and distance, one could achieve an acceptable degree of “not quite flat” texture.
  3. I like your clean methodical approach to all these modifications Paul.👍😎
  4. Since I am in a bit of a building slump right now…I did a quick test. The bottom piece of Evergreen is blasted with crushed glass which is way too aggressive, but it’s what is in my cabinet. The top one is sanded fairly smooth with 800 grit. The blasted one is sprayed with slightly thinned Tamiya LP-21 Italian Red. The smooth one is sprayed with un-thinned LP-21 from a distance of about 8-10”. I think even blasting with a finer grit could possibly damage or obliterate the raised lettering on the cover.
  5. Function is a mathematical term which, after a short bit of research, had me totally confused.
  6. Nice! I must say I had my doubts that you would be able to squeeze that engine in there….but there it is.😎
  7. Being of sound mind and body…..ahh who am I kidding?🤪
  8. Not nearly as often as I should! I tend to work obsessively on a project, then a squirrel appears and I may not get back to the project for weeks or months. I try to jot down plans, paints etc. as I go, but frequently forget to.😳
  9. If you do build it with the fenders, check that the body will sit right down nicely. I found that I had to clip off the locating pins and use the rear fenders themselves for locating the body. The pins may be necessary for a fenderless build?
  10. Her wish is your command!😈
  11. Lincoln maybe?
  12. Them is everybody except me.
  13. Page 653 of this thread astonishes me, as I thought it would get shut down due to people pushing the limits.
  14. I love messin’ with these AMT ‘36 Fords!😈
  15. Babe could also refer to a famous baseball player or a famous talking piglet.
